“It was a close match, we split with them during the season so we knew it would be close,” Port Edwards coach Lisa Miller said. “The girls started out pretty sluggish, the young girls came out nervous but they turned it around to grab the win.”

The Blackhawks will face Wild Rose, who had a bye for the first round, at 7 p.m. on Thursday.
